THANK YOU LADY FRIARS
The Providence College Women's Hockey Team was on-hand to launch the WAVES'
2012 Learn-to-Play session. More than 50 girls took the ice, and filled
Tony Kent Arena with pink tape and smiles. The Lady Friars skated with the
girls, then stayed for autographs. PC's players were completely engaged
with the Ripples, who were as young as 4-years old, for more than 2 hours.
The NCAA's Hockey East (Division I) is the premier league for women's
hockey. Providence College is a perennial powerhouse in Hockey East, but
more importantly to the 50 girls who took the ice Sunday, they are also
exceptional ambassadors for the women's game!
This is the Friars first of three trips to Massachusetts in a week. PC will
play Dartmouth at Fenway Park on Tuesday. They return to the Bay State on
Sunday to face-off with Hockey East rivals Northeastern at The Bog in
Kingston.
Good Luck to the Lady Friars! We hope the team's week ends as successfully
as it began. We are also looking forward to seeing the Lady Friars return
to Cape Cod in March for Hockey East's Final Four!
